The King (allelujah) Lyrics - Dc Talk - Dc Talk

John the Baptist prophesied a Messiah will rise 

He'll be tried, crucified, ascend in the skies 

Years later in the city of Dave 

A miracle of God gave a virgin a babe 

Kings came from afar, followed a star 

To worship baby Jesus who was born in a barn 

He brings peace on Earth, His mercy is mild 

God and sinners reconciled through the birth of a child 

It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing (Doncha know) 

Allelujah, let it move ya, Christ is King 

Allelujah 

Christ is the King 

Allelujah 

Let the praises ring 

Allelujah 

He stood before Pilot an innocent man 

They cried â??Crucify!â?? He supplied demand 

He was mocked, spit upon, His clothes were torn 

Royalty represented with a crown of thorns 

They placed Him in a robe, they gave Him a staff 

As they gambled for His garments Roman soldiers laughed 

Upon Golgotha they crucified Christ 

Sent from above to cold pay your price 

On His command opposition was through 

But Christ said â??Forgive them, they know not what they do!â?? 

Allelujah 

Christ is the King 

Allelujah 

Let the praises ring 

Allelujah 

Now Mary ran toward the tomb of her Messiah and Lord 

Shocked to find the rock removed that served as a door 

She took one step inside, filled with fright 

She thought a thief must have stole his body late in the night 

As she fell to the ground she began to weep 

Heard a voice and turned to hear the Savior speak 

Christ the Messiah risen up from the dead 

He's alive, she cried, like the prophecy read 

It's the story of my Savior, my reason to sing 

Allelujah, come on! Christ is King 

Allelujah 

Christ is the King 

Allelujah 

Let the praises ring 

Allelujah
